JaCo Electric | Professional Electrical Contractor in Placentia, CA

Absolutely. We frequently address these exact issues for Placentia homes. For outdoor outlets, we install weatherproof, in-use covers and ensure proper GFCI protection to prevent hazards from water intrusion. For attic wiring, we inspect for damage from heat, pests, or aging insulation, repair any short circuits with new, correctly rated wiring, and often recommend adding junction box access points for easier future maintenance, which is common in our older local neighborhoods.

A panel upgrade involves replacing your home's main electrical service panel and meter base to increase its capacity and safety. Many older Placentia homes have 100-amp panels that can't handle modern demands like EV chargers, added appliances, or central air. We assess your current and future needs, handle all permits with the city, and install a new, code-compliant panel (often 200-amp) to provide safe, reliable power for years to come. We offer free estimates for this major project.

Yes, we specialize in EV charging station installation. The process starts with a thorough inspection of your home's electrical panel to ensure it has the capacity. We then install a dedicated 240-volt circuit, which often requires a new circuit breaker and running conduit and wiring to your desired location, typically a garage. We ensure the installation is up to code, properly permitted if required, and works seamlessly with your vehicle. As a fully insured local electrician, we handle everything from the panel to the plug.
